electron rel mass
1/1836
p/n rel mass
1
isotopes
atoms of the same element with different number of neutrons and different masses
heavy water
control process in nuclear reactors
2H isotope
cations
positive ions
more protons than electrons
anions
negative ions
more electrons than protons
relative isotopic mass
mass of an isotope relative to 1/12th of the mass of an atom of carbon 12
relative atomic mass
weighted mean mass of an atom of an element relative to 1/12th of the mass of an atom of carbon-12
weighted mean mass
takes into account:
percentage abundance of each isotope
relative isotopic mass of each isotope
m/z
mass to charge ratio
relative mass of ion/ relative charge on ion
binary compound
contains two elements only
ionic- metal ion always first in name
avogadro constant
number of particles in each mole of carbon-12
6.02 x10^23
rel molecular mass
compared mass of a molecule with the mass of an atom of carbon 12
empirical formulae
simplest whole number ratio of atoms of each element in a compound
molecular formula
number of atoms of each element in a molecule
hydrated salts
water molecules are part of their crystalline structure - water of crystallisation
standard solution
solution of known concentration
molar gas volume
volume per mole of gas molecules at a stated temp and pressure
acid + metal oxide/ hydroxide
salt + water
acid + alkali
salt + water
acid + carbonate
salt + water + co2
atomic orbital
region around the nucleus that can hold up to two electrons, with opposite spins
shells
energy levels
energy increases as the shell number increases
called principal quantum number n
s orbital
n=1 contains 1 s orbital
greater the shell number, the greater the radius of its s orbital
